Noticed on my frogspawn last week and was curious what kind of sponge this might be?

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

As has been said, that's not a sponge - that's a vermetid snail. They live in hard, immobile tubes and send out mucus nets to catch food. Some species are highly invasive in our tanks, and some species may also irritate corals - so removal is generally recommended.
